On the palate, Dickel Bottled In Bond offers layers of caramel, vanilla, toasted oak, and subtle spice. These flavors create a harmonious balance that stands up beautifully to smoky barbecue ribs or sharp aged cheddar.

Producer Information: George Dickel

George Dickel is based in Tullahoma, Tennessee, where the distillery was established in 1870 by George A. Dickel. The brand’s founder believed that whisky made in the winter months produced a smoother spirit, a tradition still honored today. George Dickel uses the Lincoln County Process, which involves filtering their whisky through sugar maple charcoal before aging it in new American oak barrels. This method imparts a signature mellow character to their Tennessee whisky and distinguishes it from traditional bourbons.

Beyond their classic Tennessee whisky expressions, George Dickel offers a diverse portfolio that includes rye whiskies crafted with high rye content for added spice and complexity. They have also released limited edition bottlings such as Bottled-in-Bond and single barrel selections, appealing to collectors and enthusiasts seeking unique flavor profiles. In addition to their core spirits, George Dickel has experimented with cask finishes and collaborations with other producers to create innovative releases that highlight different maturation techniques and regional influences within American whiskey production.
